Asaf Avidan
- This event has passed.
Drawing comparisons to Janis Joplin, Jeff Buckley, and Nina Simone, Asaf Avidan possesses a voice that is utterly singular. Avidan shot to worldwide fame when his track “One Day/Reckoning Song,” performed with his band, Asaf Avidan & The Mojos, hit number one in 14 countries as a remix by a Berlin DJ. The video has 150 million views on YouTube.
Avidan recently released his debut solo album, Different Pulses, to much acclaim in Europe. This follows three albums that Asaf Avidan & The Mojos released between 2008 and 2010, each topping critics’ year-end Best Of lists. In the new work, Avidan focuses his passion and poetry into a tight suite of songs linked by robust melodies and intriguing psychological ambivalence. Avidan pushes his remarkable voice to its limits.
